カターニアの峡谷・トップ7

非常に強い示唆的な流れ

One of the most beautiful lava tunnels on the north side of Mount Etna is the Serracozzo Grotto (surely often visited, but not signposted). A lava tunnel is not a cave, but rather one formed during an eruption, when a crust forms on the surface of the slowly flowing lava in flatter terrain. This "tunnel" is easy to enter (assuming there's no threat of a thunderstorm (flooding!) or ice and snow making entry dangerous). Don't forget your flashlight; two cave-ins in the ceiling provide sufficient light until halfway through the tunnel, after which it becomes very shallow and pitch-dark in places. It's worth exploring!

Beautiful little gorge. The water is very powerful! Be careful!

Approx. 115m long volcanic grotto. A few meters off the main path. Signposted.

It is located a very short distance from the track, following an uphill path. The cave is also slightly uphill... it is not very high, nor one of the most spectacular. But it is really easy to reach

It is worth climbing up to the edge of the crater, you can enjoy a beautiful view of the interior of Sicily

This cave was formed from a lava flow that cooled and solidified on the outside, but continued to flow inside, leaving a hollow space behind. The Grotta Serracozzo is particularly impressive because it has collapsed in two places, allowing daylight to enter.

The remains of the castle are very sparse, but the view is great. The climb begins a little further east. There are several entrances to the river along the easy hiking trail.
